How Bad Is Biden’s Condition?
How long before he’s gone from the presidency, one way or another?
Joe Biden ran one of the strangest campaigns in presidential history – no major rallies … only brief interviews with friendly media. He basically campaigned from his basement while the media covered for him.
Now, by hook or crook, he is president of the United States. Even Democrats are concerned about his having total control over nuclear codes. He makes very few appearances. Dr. Jill, his primary caregiver, is always by his side and often answers questions directed at him or tries to clarify his gaffes. Here are recent examples from Texas and Hispanic television.
No date has been announced for the State of the Union, which will make it the latest in modern history. Could it be that the same handlers who were afraid of what Biden would say on the campaign trail now are scared of what would happen if he addresses both houses of Congress on national television?
Dan Bongino was a guest on Hannity and discussed Biden’s mental state.
BONGINO: “But on this nuclear football story, you know, I’m not kidding, when the producers sent this to me, I had to read this twice. I thought, ‘Is this ‘The Babylon Bee’? Is this ‘The Onion’?’ This is a real story.”
HANNITY: “You thought it was fake news, right?”
BONGINO: “No, I’m not kidding. I thought, ‘Is he trying to be funny about this?’ This is a real story. These are Democrats. You said it in your opening segment, I hope everybody didn’t miss the line. Is there something these Democrats aren’t telling us? It was something I warned about before the election I was getting from my sources. Sean, again, it gives me absolutely no joy in saying this, and I mean that, he is in real significant trouble, Joe Biden. And listen to me. Everyone around him, everyone knows it. Everyone knows it. This is the scandal, that they are not telling you how bad his condition really is.”
HANNITY: “You are a former Secret Service agent. Are you saying that if we were to bring on Secret Service agents, they would confirm what you are saying?”
BONGINO: “Well, they call it the Secret Service for a reason, but I maintain a lot of contacts outside of even law enforcement, and I’m telling you, from what I’ve heard from people in my network, everyone knows how bad it is. Everyone. It’s not a mystery. It is the worst-kept secret in the White House. And how they can — think about this. We are only in the second month of this. How bad is this going to be four years from now? This is a serious problem. It’s not a joke.”
HANNITY: “That would mean a cover-up, concealing something from the American people, potentially. Again, I’m not a doctor. I’m not going to play one on TV. I’m not going to play one on radio. My own observation, Matt, is if you go back 4 years, 10 years ago, he looks weak and frail and he’s obviously struggling cognitively. I’m not making a medical diagnosis, but the reality is everybody sees it and there’s only a few of us willing to talk about it and be honest about it.”

Another great Biden* image.

A finance vid. The guest argues that gold is over sold:
1) it’s down because rates are rising, but
2) gov’ts across the world have strapped on enormous debt in order to handle the pandemic
3) if rates go up they won’t be able to pay interest on the debt
4) thus gov’ts will step in and artificially suppress rates
This is a perfect setup for gold. “Stay away from sovereign debt”
Time will tell.

My prediction is that Biden will be forced to retire next spring. Anything under a year would be bad optics.

Jim Acosta “acosted” at CPAC (part 1):

When will Acosta cover Biden?
That’s what I want to know …

JimNorCal #7 –
When the elites decide it’s time for Biden to go. Too soon would be bad optics.
I saw a thread, which I can’t locate, saying that Cuomo might be the Biden dress rehearsal.

It appears the left is starting to push “Little Ben” sASSe:

I think Biden goes MUCH sooner than next Spring. In fact, I think the rush to issue EOs and to get far (and further) Left hacks in all positions is part of the plan. Bad shit is going to happen, at an accelerated rate. They can only blame Trump so long…they’ll need a new scapegoat, and Biden will be it. I still think he only makes to the end of July, at best.

3,
You have to ask yourself, why are Russia and China buying as much gold as they can get their hands on? Fact Russia has gold purchase as a strategic economic policy. Its because they both see that gold/silver will be the means at which international settlements will be pegged when the fiat collapses. They also see it as the fin lever for geopolitics. “He who has the gold, rules.”
Jim Sinclair is projecting that there will be two stages for the gold move:
* A rise then consolidation to $3500/oz.
* Then a reset in the US to $87500/oz as that is the rate that US gold reserves ‘zero out’ outstanding USD in circulation on a notational basis.

Biden stepping down will finally start the revolution!
I give it 9 days!
Dig in folks!!

Good bye Nikki Haley, there’s a new lady sheriff in town.

Isn’t it amazing how many Republicans are willing to throw away their careers for 10 minutes of favorable media coverage?
[15]
bc, 10. “If there’s a model for how to successfully build a conservative GOP out of Trump’s shadow, it might as well be the Nebraska Republican.”
So … the “model” is to go with the 5 NeverTrumpers instead of the 5 million voters in the base.
Can anyone see a downside?

jr #11 –
Biden is doing exactly what the left wants – open borders, laws favoring trannies, crushing religious freedom, gun control, etc. I suspect they will let him go a little longer, get all/almost all of their goals accomplished before he resigns (for medical reasons) and then blame him for destroying the economy.

Does anyone know if our good friend Clay Travis is speaking at CPAC this year?
Inquiring minds want to know!!

“Love listening to Lyn”
Yes, she’s understandable! I don’t know if she’s a good communicator or not that smart LOL.
Her thesis (also the one I posted earlier): Gold, tech stocks and BitCoin have all gone down because gov’t bond rates of return have gone up. Why take a chance on “risk assets” if you get “sovereign debt” guarantees?
But gov’ts are printing SO much paper money they have few choices:
Artificially force rates down, otherwise debt payments balloon to absurd levels
Inflate money till it’s worth a LOT less
Either way, expect physical assets to go up: metals, real estate, commodities. Also BitCoin and stocks should rise whichever choice is taken.
[21]
I think Biden goes MUCH sooner than next Spring.
I agree with JR here. The guy is melting down before our eyes.
Also, I don’t think they give a rats ass about optics anymore. Not after the 2020 election. It’s all about exerting raw, naked power and crushing as much opposition as possible as early as possible. They don’t want to give anyone the hope that things could be anything other than the course they are following now. With or without Joe Biden.
I honestly believe the Left in this country would consider 40 to 60 million or more dead to be acceptable losses, as long as they win in the end.

Our “good friend” Clay Travis is vacationing with his family in Mexico. It worked so well for Ted Cruz, he figured he’d try it.

Then a reset in the US to $87500/oz as that is the rate that US gold reserves ‘zero out’ outstanding USD in circulation on a notational basis.
Do we even know what the true US gold reserves even are? I would be surprised that if an audit were to open up the vaults at Fort Knox we would find a big empty room with a single note that says.
I owe you $XX,XXX,XXX,XXX,XXX.00. Suckers…

Once again I think gold moves with real rates (nominal rates minus inflation), which is why I don’t own any electronic gold at the moment.
If we the Fed announces yield curve control, and inflation ticks up that’s when gold would do really well. If yields would locked at 2% but inflation was 6% that = -4% real yield. Bonds and treasuries are gold competition so if gold is holding its value vs the other two that are yielding -4% it’s a no brain choice.
vs.
If the Fed just let’s yields rise, that’s actually pretty bad for gold. (Say yields are 4% and inflation is 0% that means bonds and treasuries are out yielding gold and it gets smashed)
I don’t think the Fed can let yields rise endlessly so I think they eventually try to stop this with yield curve control. So there’s a time for gold eventually. Actually Australia and Japan are trying partial YCC right now and the other central banks are taking notes.
Thing about it is silver is a reflationary asset that won’t be bothered by yields doing what they’re doing so i don’t see any drawback to it.
[25]
Of course there is one asset that is significantly more pristine than Gold and will outcompete gold, bonds, and treasuries.
1 trillion dollar market cap vs a 10 trillion dollar market cap asset
next stop gold at 10 trillion before it eats the entire global bond market

22 BC,
That sucks. He should be at CPAC.
I would love to hear his thoughts on pickle puffer “marriage”
Maybe next year …. 😆

23,
Only what they tell us of course. Maybe somebody did a rerun of Goldfinger?
If the yields climb I might be in the market for more gold.
